The moniker of "Crane Bedi" that I got during my stint with Delhi Traffic Police forms the essence of this blog. A crane clears the way and makes pathways. This is where I express my thoughts and share my experiences and concerns for a better world.

Team Raj Nivas and Team Swachh Puducherry went biking around the city to see the overall state of cleanliness

This Sunday Team Raj Nivas and Team Swachh Puducherry went biking around the city to see the overall state of cleanliness.

The Team presented the Swachh workers with shawls of gratitude at several places. Most of this work is being carried out by above middle aged women and older men. The workers said while they clean, some people litter the place again in their very presence. It is time for people to respect their services.

A while from now even their services will become difficult to get. Or not affordable as is the case in the West. Earlier we switch to source segregation and mechanised collection and then waste to wealth / energy/ manure/ creation, the better shall it be.

Community and Municipal Agencies must learn to work together. Community leaders need to lead this transformation.

Our PM is taking us to the right direction.

We all have to walk the path in all Municipalities and make it a caravan..of Swachh Bharat. The Municipal Commissioners and Collectors have to get out of their cars and gym and bike their streets. Only then will mounds of garbage go and people's attitude towards sanitation, and swatchh workers change.
